Isn't it amazing that the aspect of our existence which we depend upon the most is the one we understand the least? I’m speaking here of the human energy matrix; the aura and 12 chakra system. The first thing we need to understand is that the auric field and 12 chakra centers are one complete system of energy and must be looked at as such, if understanding it is what we seek.

Most people go from day to day without as much as a casual thought about their energy system, or its condition; never realizing that although it is a system which can function automatically, it is designed to respond to direct input from us…and only operates at peak efficiency when such is the case.

Without direct input and regular maintenance from you, your aura and chakras operate in a kind of default mode. Now this works well enough for a while but will eventually lead to a situation where instead of your energy responding to you…you are reacting to your energy and emotions.

The impact of this is perhaps greater when put in visual terms:

Next we must understand that the aura is a multi-layered, multi-dimensional bio-electric body suit which is NOT generated by the body, but which, in fact, creates the body! This goes contrary to popular thought, mainly because most of the material available is just re-hashed variants of information passed between teacher and student ages ago, and is inherently wrong on a couple of key issues.

We know by now that we are spiritual beings having a human experience, and that Earth, having been in third dimensional awareness for eons, is now transitioning to a higher frequency resonance. For our spiritual resonance to exist in such dense, muddy environs as third dimensional space-time some accommodations and adjustments are required, hence the human form comes into being through the resonance and intent that is you. Chakras are ‘observation and measuring devices’… spinning vortices that function much the same as sensors and scanners…and they are also repositories of dedicated data (not at all unlike a CD-Rom disc), and you have two sets of them so to speak.

First are the traditional seven chakras most may be familiar with, associated with the body. Then there are the five chakras you probably have never heard of, called the trans-personal or spiritual chakras. To be sure there are many who have written about the twelve chakra system, unfortunately there isn’t always good continuity of information between them. It’s almost as if when writing a book on astrology, the author could name the planets anything he wanted. Unlike astrology, where each planet has a universally accepted name, such does not seem to be the case on the subject of chakras, leading to much confusion to say the least.

The information here is mostly from the channelLazaris and is a synthesized condensation of his many hours of audio tapes and presentations on the human energy system. My goal here being to provide a basic, rudimentary guide to the energy system, and how it works.

The structure and function of the 12 chakras is as follows:

1st

2nd

3rd

4th

5th

6th

7th

8th

9th

10th

11th

12th

Root Chakra, base of spine, center of security and comfort

Sacral Chakra, pelvis, center of primal creativity-sexuality

Solar Plexus Chakra, diaphragm, full range of human emotion

Heart Chakra, upper chest, center of love

Throat Chakra, the full range of human expression

Brow Chakra, forehead, center of intuition and wisdom

Crown Chakra, top of head, realm of unlimited potential

Auric Chakra, below feet, realm of unlimited probability

Etheric Chakra, just above the head, the causal plane - realm of all possible things

Real Self Chakra (above 9th) realm of the real, transcendent self

Soul Star Chakra (above 10th) realm of true spiritual essence

Divine Gateway Chakra (above 11th) God force Consciousness

Although the human body is physical because it’s the vessel we occupy to experience this dimension of reality, the chakras are not physical; they are energetic, part of the light body.

The next step on our tour of the human energy system is perhaps the most significant as it details exactly how the aura is constructed, and the fullness of the flow of this energy which is us.

As Lazaris says; “That place into which God-Goddess-All that Is breathes the breath that becomes you, is the twelfth chakra, the seat of God Force consciousness.”

From here the energy spirals down into the eleventh chakra, the Soul Star, which is the realm of the higher self.

Bearing in mind the sheer power and magnitude of God force energy, you can readily see that a secondary function of the 5 transpersonal chakras is to also function as ‘step-down transformers’, modifying the energy so it will be compatible with the frail human bio-suit that is our body.

From the eleventh, the energy spirals downward into the tenth, the Real Self chakra, and the realm of your true, transcendent Self.

Next the energy encounters the all important ninth chakra. I say all important because it is here we find the causal plane, and the realm of unlimited possibility.

Everything that exists on Earth existed first on the causal plane. Events transpiring on Earth happen first in the causal plane, then here, and this ninth chakra, the doorway to the casual plane, rests just a few inches above the head.

From here your energy does not proceed directly into the crown chakra, but instead it balloons outward and downward, forming an energetic ovoid shaped shell, connecting with the eighth chakra below the feet, which is the realm ofunlimited probability.

From here your energy again balloons outward and upward now, just inside the first shell, and then enters the physical body thru the seventh chakra, called the crown, which is the realm of unlimited potential.

Whether or not you fully realize it, you are an ageless, timeless energy entity existing in the realm of unlimited potential, between the realms of unlimited probability, and unlimited possibility. Now your energy courses into the body and the seven traditional chakra centers; bringing it first to the brow chakra, which is the center of intuition and wisdom.

Not only do the traditional chakras function as sensors, always searching for new data in their informational range, they also store all of this information, a function which will be clarified as we proceed.

Next your energy encounters the throat chakra, the yang energy hub, whose function is the full range of human expression.

Next comes the sacral chakra, where all of our primal sexuality and creativity originate from.

Finally your energy reaches the first chakra, the root or base chakra, which is the domain of security and comfort, and represents the end of the goddess's exhale breath, and the beginning of the next inhale.

s God-Goddess-All That Is begins the next breath, your energy passes the sleeping and dormant kundalini and begins its return trip to the Source.

You’ll recall that the chakras hold data… well, on the return to Source your energy copies all the data from each respective chakra center in the seven traditional chakras, carrying it back to Source.

Upon its return to the crown chakra, your energy again balloons out, and back down to the eighth chakra, only outside of the previously made ovoid shells, navigates the auric chakra and then balloons out and upward to re-enter the casual plane at the ninth chakra level, creating the final outer layer of the aura as it does so. Back tracking its original path your energy ends up where it began, at the twelfth chakra, where it delivers the latest energy dispatches from your chakra system. This information is then used to construct your on-going ‘reality’ as you experience it in the flesh.

The universe really does re-arrange itself to fit your picture of ‘reality.’ For example: if you’re a negative sarcastic pessimist who believes mostly negative things about yourself, that will be the reality presented to you. Conversely, if you are full of confidence and see each day as a new opportunity, such will be reflected in your personal reality as well.

Only when we change outdated, obsolete thoughts and emotions, replacing them with positive, life-affirming counterparts will we see a change in our perceived reality.

As previously stated, this elegant energy system can operate on an automatic, default setting, but is really designed to respond to our thoughts and intent. By becoming familiar with its structure and function you come to know yourself as never before.

Consider your computer for a moment. If you never performed any of the required tasks such as defragging, dusting and anti-virus protocols, within a few months the computer’s speed would be reduced, as would its efficiency in general. Let it go even longer and serious complications can arise, like blue screens, freezing and crashing.

The human energy system is a lot like that. “It will take a licking and keep on ticking” to be sure, but it will not be operating anywhere near “manufacturers specifications” and neither will you.

Visualize the string of an instrument, say a harp, piano or guitar. To keep the sound resonance true, musicians keep the strings clean. A dirty string will change the resonance of the vibration it makes when plucked or struck. Same thing goes with your aura and chakras. If not dealt with by routine attendance, the residue from negative, toxic events and emotions can build up in the energy system, dulling the colors of the aura and clogging up the chakras.

Since one of the aura's functions is to protect the body from unwanted, possibly harmful, influences, you’re really letting your guard down when you ignore the condition of your energy.

When we take a look around at the transformations now under way in the world with each new day bringing even more complexity to the survival equation, we begin to see why having control over our energy is preferable to reacting to whatever state our energy is in. The former can get you through, while the latter can get you dead.

Because this energy system is so elegant and functional, it is also fairly easy to keep clean. This is an excellent area for guided visualization and similar type meditations. You can even create them yourself, after all, who knows you better? Intent is the key principle to structure any such meditation around; and that is because energy always follows thought.

This brings us to the destiny formula, because these days who isn't wondering about destiny just a little?

It’s perhaps helpful to note at this point that in the dictionary 'destiny' is between 'destination' and 'destitute'.

If you don’t like the way your life is going, or some of the things showing up in it, all you have to do is change the way you think and believe. When you argue in favor of a limitation, it becomes yours… where your thoughts go, your energy will follow, every time without fail, and wherever they go they will begin weaving your reality, according to the nature of those thoughts. In the course of a normal day it’s a good bet that someone will do or say something which disrupts your energy a little bit, resulting in an aversion reaction from you. Each and every time this happens, that little disruption will hunker down to reside somewhere in your aura or chakras, as unresolved negative emotion unless you learn to just let it go without holding onto it.

Most folks don’t ‘catch and release’ such energies; for some reason we prefer to collect them and hold onto them, never realizing just how toxic that energy is.

So… you think maybe you've got a few “klingons” lurking about in your energy system, and want to evict them. As said previously, the human energy system is actually fairly easy to clean and maintain, all you have to do is ‘show up’ with that intent and half the work is already done.

To be sure, it seems there are any number of techniques and meditations out there which are designed to help maintain the energy system, and I would suggest you try all that vibe positively with you.

In my personal experience and practice I find that absolutely nothing works better than sound to rid the energy system of unwanted debris.

The musician Steve Halpern http://www.innerpeacemusic.com/ is a pioneer of spiritual acoustics. Several years back he released a CD entitled “Spectrum Suite” which balances and attunes the chakras one by one.

The musicianJonathan Goldman is another pioneer in this field; http://www.healingsounds.com/. I highly recommend his work “Chakra Chants” - as the deep voice Tibetan chants he employs do a magnificent job of cleaning and balancing the chakra system.

The San Francisco artist Alex Greyhttp://alexgrey.com/creates astoundingly beautiful paintings of the energetic human in all its glory, and many people include them in their guided visualizations. Going through life with a muddy-colored aura and blocked chakras is like hauling a load of bricks uphill. Once you begin the process of cleaning up your energy system, everything starts to become lighter, more effortless.

Once you begin clearing the blockages from the chakras, especially the heart and solar plexus, you will invariably discover old emotional hurts coming to the surface, some having been completely forgotten. Don’t let this throw you off your intent. When such things surface it’s just a normal part of the process, and here’s how you deal with it:

Almost without fail, such negative energy is associated with a painful lesson we’ve learned. We seek to keep the lessons learned while removing the negative charge attached to them.

When these things come up simply visualize a fully charged battery, any kind of a battery. The battery represents the lesson learned while the energy within is toxic, and unwanted. In whatever manner works best for you, hold that battery in your minds eye, and then drain that sucker dry. Some blockages might have been around for a while, so repeat as needed.

You won’t have to guess whether or not ‘it’s working’, you’ll be able to feel the difference as you release these dense negative energies from your light body.

The human energy system is not only an elegant and complex life support system for the soul, it’s also the means by which we have access to our eternal, unlimited nature, and the realm of Christ consciousness from which we originate.

The aura and12 chakras represent the key, the map and the owner’s manual for being incarnate in human form, and the majority of us take it all for granted, never realizing the keys to the Kingdom reside within us, awaiting our directive.

It's quite literally true that we are stardust. In the highest exalted way one can use that phrase - Neil deGrasse Tyson

Our own decision to view the universe as dead, as inanimate, as unintelligent, allowed us, permitted us, to dissect it, use it and deny its validity outside of human purpose. Now, the consequence of living like that is coming back to haunt us. You know, we have almost destroyed our home, we have almost cut the earth from beneath our own feet

So the archaic holds answers but it only holds answers if we are willing to think of the universe as a living intelligent entity with which we are in partnership, not set against, but that in fact we are a part of a morphogenetic intent and an unfolding reality that is larger than human understanding.

It's an organism, yes, and the galaxy is a kind of an organism. The galaxy stays together because the galaxy wants to be a galaxy - Terence Mckenna
